Hi, I’m Christie!
Welcome to the blog! I create simple and flavourful meals with a nutritious twist. You can find me in Toronto with my 3 teen kids, my busy husband and Lady, our adorable cockapoo. I love to think about what to make for dinner, so you don’t have to!
My passion for cooking ignited during my high school years. Food has always held a special place in my heart, but my relationship with it became unhealthy as I struggled with weight gain and the shame associated with it. This led to an eating disorder, and a tumultuous cycle of denying myself, bingeing, and over-exercising.
It was a slow journey of learning to love the nourishing qualities of food. I began to teach myself how to prepare foods from natural sources and to eat intuitively.
Perfection is not the goal
The kitchen became my sanctuary, a place where I could create foods that nourished my body and soul. I also discovered that I loved making meals to share with others.
It took me a while, but I learned the beauty of eating for my body and exercising for my mind. This balance has kept me sane and healthy. I found yoga during a time in my life of extreme stress and anxiety. Yoga has been transformative.
Here on the blog, I share with you nourishing foods as well as the lessons yoga teaches me. Come and join my YouTube community over @YogawithChristie where I share my passion for yoga and give you the tools to live a more balanced and mindful life both on and off the mat.
And follow along over on Instagram for updates on recipes and when new yoga classes drop! I’m so glad you’re here!
Stay in the loop
